The brother of Mason Jones, who died in the South Wales e.coli outbreak is to be given a special sporting treat.

Eight-year-old Chandler is to be part of a 50-strong group from Deri Primary School in Bargoed which will visit Ninian Park tonight.

The school was given free tickets by Cardiff City FC, to attend its home match against Brighton.

Acting head Nicola Williams said: 'We are quite involved with the club and with what has been going on with the school, we were offered 50 free tickets.

'The club usually gives free tickets to schools, but they gave them all to us. Chandler is going to come down and watch.'

Both Chandler and his brother Mason were struck down by food poisoning during the e.coli outbreak. Chandler recovered but Mason, five, died of kidney failure at Bristol's children's hospital in October.
